Retro Homoerotic Ad of the Week: Schlitz.

(click ad, from 1948, via)Darkie: "I was (bi) curious..."Blondie: "Let me grab that for you. These rocks are hard, huh?"Darkie: "...when's the last time you had sex with Betty?"Blondie: "Our wedding night."Darkie: "Maybe I'm being too forward..."Blondie: "Please, say it."Darkie: "Can I pee in your mouth?"Blondie: "As long as I can wash it down with a cold Schlitz!"Previous Retro Homoerotic Ad of the Week.Previous Retro Schlitz ad: "Don't worry darling, you didn't burn the beer!"

I see and feel more of a sapphic connection going on between Betty and Doris than Darkie and Blondie, and I don't mean the poetic verse reputed to have been invented by Sappho, consisting of five feet, of which the first, fourth, and fifth are trochees, the second is a spondee, and the third a dactyl.

PS: your reference to 'golden showers' and the porn link was skeezy on your part, but at least, it's a change from your incessant and juvenile 'F' bombs.
